Norwegians Hold Spotlight As Olympic Games Draw Nearer

The best part of the current European athletic season is still to come and the best performances are generally achieved in August and Septem- ber. Europe's athletes are now beginning to build up into peak form and late July performances have been very impressive.

Currently holding the spotlight as two very strong candidates for Olympic Championships are two Norwegians Audun Boysen and Egil Danielsen.
